A RAISIN IN THE SUN

Lorraine Hansberry
March 30-April 18, 2010

This season marks 50 years since Lorraine Hansberry’s play premiered on Broadway, a first for a black, female playwright. A fiercely moving story of hope, A Raisin in the Sun is a major American masterpiece that is just as relevant today as when it was written. From their tenement apartment, the Younger family believes an insurance windfall is about to change their lives. When the odds are stacked against them, will the family collapse or will they rise above? VSC’s contribution to Minds Wide Open, Virginia’s statewide celebration of women in the arts.

THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE (ABRIDGED) - Season Extra!

William Shakespeare
April 21-25, 2010

London’s Longest Running Comedy! All 37 Plays in 97 Minutes! An irreverent, fast-paced romp through the Bard’s plays, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) was London’s longest running comedy—ten years at the Criterion Theatre. Praised by the Los Angeles Times as “wildly funny” and by the Montreal Gazette as “the funniest show you are likely to see in your entire lifetime”. A co-production with Virginia Arts Festival.
